They really kick as a mule! Let me know what are your impressions, but i think you will like them, they are very efficient!

I am also in the process of building some Martin Audio 215 mk3 bins! You are much further in the process than I, which is why I would like to ask you some questions if it's ok!

- I started modelling with 18mm ply, but seems like you are using 15mm, any special reason for this?

- I have made a CAD drawing from the drawings that can be found on the forum. There were some parts which angles were not specified, and some measurements that I could not match with the drawings. I am a beginner builder, so I do not know how crucial they are. 


Here's what my model looks like so far, still got some stuff to do. 




If I asked really really nicely, could you send your CAD file to me? Beer Meanwhile, waiting for more build pics and info!!

I've only used 18mm for everything I don't recall posting anything about 15mm . The drawing I used is this one

Wiiidapiii Best thing that you can do is get a peice of mdf the size of the bottom panel. Then draw out on that with a good old pencil and a long ruler. You will be able to work out where you are wrong, I would think. Get a carpenters bevel too and a good old protractor. they still work. not digital I know but they work. Wheres my slide rule?
